The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 209
Advertisement
After the call, Yang Dao had to face another problem. He called Ray to his location with a jersey. The latter arrived in a car. He did not understand first but later he found Yang Dao leaning against the leopard while he sat in the nude.
He asked, "New kink?"
Yang Dao just gave him an eye roll. He stood up and wore the jersey. Ray went back away. He came close because he did not spot the leopard from the distance. He showed calm on his face, but his heart almost exploded when those green jewel-like eyes shone on him.
He went back a few steps because his calm was about to end and he did not want to look bad in front of Yang Dao. The Dao Child squatted down beside the two cubs, who were now looking at him with their shining green eyes. The boy said, "Thank you for your help. You made me realize something, that whatever we take from nature is eventually returned to nature. Um... I still cannot put it in words. Well, whatever, thank you. I will come by tomorrow and bring you good food."
He rubbed the two cubs a bit and then left. Ray helped him push the bike as the boy carried the weight plates in his hands. They talked little and after putting down the plates inside the car, Yang Dao rode the bike to the mansion. The dinner was already being served.
He went back to his room and entered the shower. As the warm water from the shower washed over him, the boy fell into thought. He was thinking about his comprehension earlier. When his eyes fell on the two cubs, it was like the Ying Yang symbol spinning in front of his eyes. His mind was sucked inside that vortex.

In that vortex, there was endless space. When he looked around he saw absolutely nothing. He heard some buzzing sounds that meant nothing. He tried to exert his strength, but it did not make any difference. This situation was like when he performed skydiving. It was as if his body was in free fall.
He finally tried to take control and moved his source of energy, the first thing inside his mind was to take control of his body, thus the wings were formed behind his back. The next thing he understood inside that vortex was that elements gave him power and similarly, he can give power to the elements.
Suppose if the strong wind helps him move faster, he can also make the wind move faster by his will and interaction with the source energy. The process was really quick, and the effect was clear. He opened his eyes and walked out of the shower. Cleaned himself up with a towel and said, "Sushi, can you help me with my hair?"
The tiny girl appeared from outside and blew gently on his head. It was like a storm and Yang Dao's hair was dry. The boy applied a little moisturizer agent on his hair and he was done. He took out a set of clean clothes and walked out of his room.
When he reached the dining table, he saw that another familiar face was sitting down. It was Nika Orlenko, he did not know when did this person arrived here, and neither did he care. He sat down next to Kiya and ate the food after he said a prayer.
The old lady of the Orlenko family was also sitting at the table. She noticed Yang Dao praying and asked, "Why do you pray, Young Master Feng?"

The boy smiled and said, "We should be thankful for the food we have. Out there in the world, there are people who might kill someone just for a morsel, let alone this luxury food, served on a ceramic platter."
"Does being thankful make any difference, who knows when the situation might change and we might also fall in the ranks with those who can kill for a morsel." said the old lady.
Yang Dao smiled and said, "That is why being thankful is necessary. If you take what you have for granted, you will eventually lose it, whether it is wealth, love, or life. So cherish what you have. Only then can you totally know the value of it, that will prevent you from losing this."
His words were calm but his reason was sound. It echoed in the hearts of all the people present in the dining hall. They had never thought of being grateful to things. The old lady did not want to give up and said, "We have the things because of our hard work. Why should we be grateful for it then? It is what we have earned. Is it not?"
Yang Dao stopped his fork and after placing it down he gazed at the old lady and said, "If one day you suffer an accident and let alone hard work even following daily routine becomes a mess and you look for help from others even to use the loo, then would you still think the same? Be grateful that you had not been through something like that and I hope you do not suffer, but the arrogance and pride for your hard work is also the reason that your family business almost died if not for Sasha's aunt and father."
His words shocked the hearts of the old lady. She conceded, and the people had a pleasant mood. Yang Dao did not mention what the old lady said in the building. The old lady learned what it meant to be grateful. She said a prayer and ate. She sensed that the taste was slightly better than before. Not that Yang Dao did something to the food, but just their mentality.
After the dinner was finished, Yang Dao walked into the backyard and ponder over how to improve his skills to the peak. What he did not expect was to see Nika Orlenko sitting on a tire swing under a leafless tree.
Yang Dao did not bother with her and kept strolling around.
